takeout amber in headlights?


is it ok to take out the amber plastic in your headlights? ive seen aftermarket lights and they dont have it. how can you get the headlights apart to do this?

are you talking about the reflector?

if you do its not DOT legal therefor not legal to have on the street.

but i cant see a cop writing you up for that unless he is all kinds of pissed off.

The cops wouldn't notice. I don't like the clear corners but this is how you do it. Looks terrifying to me... Welcome to FnSweet.com

Mustang lights are different but with my old car, I stuck the lights in the oven to melt the seal, opened em, did some work, then put them in the oven again to remelt the seal. Added a little silicone to help reseal and voila. Never had a leak, etc.
